Car rear ended. What to expect to be replaced?

Kia Spectra 2004 EX. Was hit from the rear at an angle. Direct impact was on the driver side rear wheel.

-> Rim was bent

-> Side body mangled (no damage to trunk or rear door)

-> rear wheel pushed forward from its position

-> Control arm was bent

Insurance is 3rd party and the collision shop is not in the authorized list of State farm but they do a very good job. Assessor is due today/tomorrow. I want to make sure that he includes all possible items in his estimation.

Possibly I am thinking all these related parts are damaged too due to wheel tilting forward from its axis

Rear Control Arm - Lateral Link(2)

Strut

Strut body mount damage

Rear/All Wheel Alignment

Stabilizer Bar

Stabilizer Bar link

Wheel Bearing/Hub

Anything more to be included that possible got damaged?
